Happy Times | Victoria Calvin

Feb 23, 2017

Hello! This is Victoria Calvin, better know as Victoria Marie in the scrapbooking world! I am so excited to be the Felicity Jane Guest Designer for the month of February 2017! As soon as I received the London kit I immediately cracked it open and started playing with all of the beautiful goodies that are included in this kit!

Here's what I created:

This layout features a photo of my daughter and I during a recent visit to a local art museum. My intention for this layout was to create a clean design with a bit of movement and a lot of emphasis on the photo.

I started this layout by creating layers of pattern paper behind the photo. To the photo layers, I added a tag and a black and white gingham heart from the 12x12 cut apart sticker sheet. To the heart I layered a label that says "smile" and a chipboard triangle die cut. To the right of the photo layer I added a bit of washi tape by Little B and a white acrylic heart.

To the left of the photo layer, I added a black and white stripe chipboard frame and layered the frame with a chipboard label that says "amazing", a white acrylic heart, and a yellow chipboard triangle to accent the frame. To create the title I used the "happy" chipboard sentiment and the exclusive black and white letter font stickers that came with the kit.

Seriously, I am totally in love with these font stickers!

To the top and bottom of the layout I added small strips of black and white floral pattern paper and stitched the strips with my sewing machine to add a bit of texture and interest. To finish the layout I added a small amount of typed journaling and a label at the bottom of the layout that serves as a spot for the date and a pink chipboard triangle die cut.

This kit was perfect for my clean and simple layout!

I've truly enjoyed the opportunity to be the Guest Designer for February! I can't wait to see what you create using this awesome kit! Thanks for stopping by!
